REVIEW: Vocabulary in Context
from Morreale & Pearson (2008)
The Millennial generation needs training in skills required to navigate a global world, including competencies related to electronic and intercultural communication. New York Times columnist and best-selling author, Thomas Friedman (2006), talks about what college graduates need to know and be able to do in order to be successful in the 21st century:
You need to like people. You need to be good at managing or interacting with other people. Although having good people skills has always been an asset in the working world, it will be even more so in a flat world [advances in technology and communication putting diverse people in touch as never before]. That said, I am not sure how you teach that as part of a classroom curriculum, but someone had better figure it out. (p. 106)
The communication discipline has figured it out and now needs to promulgate this knowledge to society. We in the discipline need to argue soundly and provide evidence of the importance of our subject matter.
ANSWER THIS QUESTION NOW: Which of these THEMES that explain the importance of studying communications apply to YOU and the goals you have for yourself?
Morreale & Pearson’s Meta-analysis (2008)* why studying communications is important
-
development of the whole person (10 references);
-
improvement of the educational enterprise (19 references);
-
being a responsible participant in the world, socially and culturally(6 references);
-
succeeding as an individual in one’s career and in business (23 references).
The last two themes are unique to this study, although they are conceptually related to the fourth theme:
- enhancing organizational processes and organizational life (24 references)
- emerging concerns in the 21st century (11 references focused on health communication, crisis and communication, crime and policing)
Sample Content Question
Arnett and Arneson proposed that all communication is dialogue. What are three overarching principles of dialogic theory? (Look them up in your chapter now and write them down!)
- Meanings are in people, not words.
-
Dialogue is more natural than monologue.
-
Contexts and social situations affect perceived meanings.
What elements from the list below contribute to the shared “field of experience” between speaker and audience?
-
Personality
-
Education
-
Culture
-
Beliefs
-
Values
-
Heredity
Interactional Model: Decoding and Encoding
Schramm and Weaver’s interactional model presents two basic processes of communication, encoding and decoding.
______________________ is what a source (speaker) does when “creating a message, adapting it across some source-selected channel” for delivery to a receiver
A. decoding B. encoding
